More About This Tutor...

My experience comes from working in mental health and counseling. I have been working with children for more than six years assisting them in developing coping skills, communication skills, anger management skills, as well as improving reading and writing skills. I have a desire to work with those who want to improve their skills and be the best they can, therefore it becomes a passion for me to help them obtain those goals. I enjoy what I do and look foward to working with those that are working towards improving their present situations.

Empowerment, Guidance and Success

Open teaching style by analyzing the client with a few questions to determine how to manage each session.
Business professional looking to provide learning from academia and employment experience to young students to help broaden their perspectives and provide real world examples for them to learn. I've had the opportunity to leverage much of my college and post graduate knowledge in today's business climate and gained many lessons learned from the experiences. I want to provide these back to the younger generation so that they can "hit the ground running" when out of school or making decisions to pursue continued education.

More About This Tutor...

I believe listening is a fundamental element of teaching. I provide my students with an enhanced listenting ability in order that I may better serve their needs. I tend to work at a pace that is comfortable for your child without providing pressure or stressors. In utilizing this style of teaching, the experience becomes more enjoyable for your child which, in turn, makes learning not only essential but rewarding.
As a parent, former student, and an educator, I have been teaching children and adolescents for over ten years. I am skilled in the areas of English, psychology, sociology, and criminal justice. I also have a basic knowledge of Spanish having been educated in this area as well.

Teaching is an art that needs to be perfected based on each individual child’s needs. I am a very demanding teacher, but at the same time always fair and give positive reinforcement while the student is learning and of course, when they have obtained their goals. I teach using a variety of strategies, but feel that hands on learning works best for most students, especially those in a tutoring atmosphere. Therefore, many manipulatives for just about any concept are used in order to turn a problem into the solution.
In my 2nd year of teaching, I have enjoyed the experiences that have came my way due to my students. I enjoy going to work daily and leave almost everyday with a sense of gratification because of the accomplishments I help my students achieve. I currently teach 4th grade and feel this grade level has helped me fine tune my writing skills due to the demanding pressure pla ... read more

The sense of achievement that can be seen on a child’s face after mastering the unknown is why I am passionate about teaching. I am flexible, understanding, and compassionate. I believe that surrounding the child in an environment that is conducive to learning is important. In addition, I believe it is important to teach multiple styles. For example, I like to make sure that my student has an opportunity to learn a lesson not only hands-on but also visually. I am a strong believer in the saying that, “Practice Makes Perfect.”

A Little Bit About Me...

About my role as a teacher, I think that the main principle should be “teaching for understanding”. A teacher creates learning opportunities that engage students in thinking about important mathematical concepts. Facts and skills support such learning but are not the ultimate goal. A teacher not only draws on past knowledge of mathematics but continuously builds on and refines that knowledge during meaningful interactions with students and colleagues. Thus, her or his practice as a teacher is constantly evolving

I have also worked with young children as a volunteer at my church when I was in high school, while I was the education reporter for a daily newspaper in South Carolina, and currently during the many family-oriented events at the museum where I work in public relations.
Every child has the ability to learn, and every child should have the opportunity to learn. An important component of teaching is helping a child find success, and thus building confidence that he/she can learn and do well. It is vitally important that a child have a good relationship with and respect for his/her teacher, and just as important that the teacher h ... read more

Since my student teaching in college, I have been eager to help students not only improve their skills in reading and writing, but to recognize the joy of literature and power of the written word. I have taught grades 6, 8, and 9-12; courses including the IB program for high level students and Read 180 for low level students in the middle school; and, prepared students for End-of-Grade tests, End-of-Course tests, the writing test, and for SAT testing. I have also edited and proofed academic and professional essays and writings for colleagues. With my varied experience of levels and ages, I have gained the ability to break skills down to their basics and build upon them for greater success.

I believe that every student has the ability to learn. It is up to us as educators to modify our teaching style to suit the student that we are teaching. I will bring patience and enthusiasm to each session, and I will work hard to teach each student the necessary skills to become competent in the subject. I have always had great mentors and educators around me, and I want to give that valuable resource back to students. At the end of every session, I will strive to see the positive impact that I have had on a student's life and learning.

I have a degree in both Marketing and Advertising as well as a minor in Economics. After graduation I quickly moved to Charlotte and took a position as an assistant manager with a popular salon in the area. With this job and my knowledge from my degree I feel gives me experience of not only setting out plans and guide lines but also puts me in a position where I need to teach and cater my conversation to the employee, or client that I am speaking with. On a personal level I am the oldest of four children. So I have had many years of experience helping to study for tests, learn new and challenging information, and trying to find exciting ways to convey the information in a way that they can not only understand but remember.

A Little Bit About Me...

Through my experience working with students, especially as a substitute teacher, I have learned that each student has unique and individual learning needs. Some students are able to retain and comprehend information when presented orally; others are visual learners, while some students work better by learning through example. My goal is to discover what learning style best meets the needs of each student and then utilize the appropriate techniques to reach the highest possible success rate. I am a patient teacher who understands the importance of consistency while remaining flexible. I also understand how frustrating learning can be to struggling students and try to make learning fun and applicable to everyday life. Students need to know that others believe in their success in order for them to achieve success.

I would love the opportunity to teach grade school children. It was during my formidable years that I can recall a young lady who impacted my education in a very significant way. Additionally, I also have very fond memories of several children who I mentored through tutoring. My innate enthusiastic nature has facilitated a strong desire with the children to participate in the learning process in many unique ways. I gain tremendous joy and satisfaction through observing this process.
Earning a degree in Communications accelerated my skills in writing through Journalism, research papers and Rhetorical studies. Additionally, writing is something I enjoy and practice on a daily basis. It has been a number of years since I have tutored a child however, I would like to incorporate my vocational experience as well as my collegiate studies into my teaching practices.
